Spring Days

90’s music, plaid shirts, and graffiti fonts all made their way back to life at this year’s Spring Days. According to Spring Days planners, Johnathan Sayaloune, senior of Scottsbluff, and Chaona Radtke, sophomore of Sidney, despite a short break that took place before they started attending CSC, Spring Days has been going on for as long as they can remember.
Attendance was extremely high for this year’s events. Over 200 shirts were supplied to be handed out at the Backyard Bash, and even with the rule of one shirt per person, the shirts ran out before the night was over.
Over 100 chairs were set out for Mr. and Mrs. Spring Days, and due to the fact that more seating had to be added for attendees of the event, Sayaloune believes that over 200 people showed up to watch the show.
Mr. and Mrs. Spring Days’ reputation preceded it, with contestants competing in a catwalk, interview, and talent portion. Despite tough competition and the pants of Aaron Duin, senior of Omaha, flying off, Devin Fulton, sophomore of Glenrock, Wyoming, and Torri Brumbaugh, junior of Gering, took home the titles of 2018 Mr. and Mrs. Spring Days.
The snow may have cancelled Friday’s activities, but Sayaloune and Radtke are hoping that if not all, most of the vendors will be able to reschedule.
The JDRF walk, hosted by Cardinal Key Club, still took place Saturday despite the weather. The snow forced the walk to be held indoors.
The weather may have caused the petting zoos, club fair and other fun activities to be cancelled. Saturday night, the dance proved to be popular with high attendance.
Vendors do tend to vary each year depending on the needs and theme of Spring Days, but Outlaw Printers and Fort Imprint are two businesses that the Spring Days Board use and would like to keep using every year. The budget this year was around 20,000, but the budget was nowhere close to being used.
“I just want to thank everyone for coming out and supporting us. If anyone would like to get involved with Spring Days for next year, they can email or contact me,” Radtke said.
